yes, this is a crazy subject. I have 4 ADSL lines to the same provider, which even have the same gateway. Those lines are connected to the same machine (more crazyness: even connected to the same nic. it works fine, I swear). this machine will serve this conenction to a local net. so, I setup the ifaces correctly, everything works. I add balancing using this command: # ip route replace default

My Internet gateway is using ADSL PPPoE connection with dynamic public IP assigned by ISP. My Internet gateway is Redhat AS3 U2, shorewall 2.0.9 As my ISP provided 4 simultaneous pppoe dailup connection for the same physical adsl line. My linux server can be configured for multiple pppoe connection i.e. ppp0, ppp1, ppp2, ppp3 Is it possible of shorewall to assigned say ppp0''s IP is

Hi Ppl I have 5 adsl lines that after reading quite a bit i managed to get load balanced now abvoiusly it doesnt load balance evenly and this works on what routes are still in the routing cache. my question is my outbound masquerading had to be modified to use snat in iptables instead of just plain masquerading my outbound masquerading now works but my inbound port forwarding doesnt work would

Hi ! Recently i switched my internet provider, to get more speed but another braindead setup regarding public ip addresses. I now have 4 PPTP Tunnel available, of which i''m using one as the gateway ip doing masquerading to other machines in my local lan, excluding three other machines, which i would like to use 1:1 nat to get them a direct access to one of the pptp tunnels. I was

Hello, I have finished setting up the load balancer with IPROUTE ... also patch the kernel to support DGD and now it''s working fine with the valuable guide at LARTC website, Julian Anastasov, and the kind people in this mailing list. Now I would like to launch a web server and a ftp server to the public but I''m stuck into a problem and really need your help. Currently internal

I have two adsl lines on my linux firewall box and i want to do some load balance between them...i tried a lot of different things, but it isn´t working...Following the instructions of http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html i used the configuration above. using "iptraf" I can see some few packets using the ppp1 connection, but almost all the packets use ppp0 connection.

Hey, I''ve been scouring the web these past few days trying to find a suitable technique to load balance my network. Unfortunately I think my setup is very uncommon, so I''m looking to you guys to see if you can help. I currently have 2 ADSL modems, provided by the same ISP and terminating on the same gateway (I think having the same gateway is what is causing the problems, since

i''ve read your http://lartc.org/howto/lartc.rpdb.multiple-links.html article as well as Advanced IP Routing (esp. chapter 10.4) and still unable to make this thing work. am i that helpless? :) is there anyone to guide me through the multiple ISP setup? into details. i got 2 dsl connections from different ISPs (A and B), both connections use PPPoE, both got assigned with dynamic IPs

how to use iproute/iptables to balance by packet OUTBOUND traffic between 2 PPP (pptp cable modem and pppoe adsl modem) links to the same ISP . also by using the fact that the ISP dosen''t filter source IP address - meaning i can use either PPP''s link assigned IP address as the source IP in the ip header.., it works for both devices.., what i want to achive is : when uploading a

Hi There, We currently using iproute2 for load balancing. However we need more upload speed as we load balance over 3 dsl lines. I''ve been looking for a way to combine the upload speed to more faster. Found a site called www.upstreaminter.net where these guys bond the adsl channels to improve uploads, Since downloading is problem as its need to know the ip address of the downloader they

Hi, can anyone help me with this problem i''ve got! I have a problem with routing on my Mandrake 7.2 Linux Box i was wondering if you could help me with. I live in Australia and as broadband access isn''t very available at the moment, i have 2 modems to dialup to my isp (dynamic ips assigned) to increase my bandwidth at an affordable level. What currently happens is i have a

I have question about multipath routing. I am running a 2.6.7 kernel (gentoo). I have a route with three nexthops on the same interface. I see a different nexthop being picked for different destination addresses. All is fine. Now if one of the nexthop goes down (arp entry times out and arp request doesnt get a response), does it remove the nexthop from contention and only use the remaining two

Hi all :) there is somekind of strange Routing problem that im getting with Linux-2.6.16 and iproute 2.6.16 , when i use command like : ip route add default nexthop via 1.1.1.1 dev eth0 nexthop via 1.1.1.2 dev eth1 all packets goes on 1.1.1.2 ( always last interface ) , whats is the problem ? this situation also tested with equalize flag , on two physical interface and etc ... -- Lady Luck

Hi, I am tring to us ip route to load balance between two interfaces. ip route add equalize 10.200.1.0/24 nexthop via 10.200.0.2 dev neta nexthop via 10.200.0.2 dev neta2 Where neta and neta2 are gre tunnels. Testing show that packets travel in a single sided manner. Do I need to use the multipath (IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_CACHED) module? thx jason

That could have gone smoother. I had many problems with the NFS install on my firewall then once I got the server back up, mail delivery was broken :- ( I still haven''t gotten ulogd to run under RH9.0 but everything else seems to be working ok... -Tom -- Tom Eastep \ Shorewall - iptables made easy Shoreline, \ http://www.shorewall.net Washington USA \ teastep@shorewall.net

Hi. I''ve trying to balance outgoing traffic by using multipath routes, but I can''t get it to work. Only one of the routes are used. I''m adding the route like this: ip route add table 101 default \ nexthop via X.X.X.X nexthop via Y.Y.Y.Y It shows up the routing table like this: default nexthop via X.X.X.X dev vlan110 weight 1

Hi, I am currently using a 2.4 kernel with multipath routing patch v5 to send outgoing packets in a 1:1 ratio over two lines, however the lines do not actually have equal upstream bandwidth, one has 800kbit and the other 600kbit, so ideally I would like to send packets in a 4:3 ratio, is there anything in 2.6 or a patch for 2.4 that could be used to do that? I tried this ugly hack but it

I''ve been reading about multipath routes and found something that no howto I saw mentioned so far: multipath algorithms. The kernel has the followings: # zgrep MULTIPATH_ /proc/config.gz CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_CACHED=y CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_RR=m CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_RANDOM=m CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_WRANDOM=m CONFIG_IP_ROUTE_MULTIPATH_DRR=m CONFIG_DM_MULTIPATH_EMC iproute2

Hí everybody, you have a nice day. I am configuring accounting in shorewall /etc/shorewall/accounting and the traffic between eth0 (local network)1, eth2(local network2) and eth3(local network3) <--> eth1(ip public network), works fine. I make the accounting because y want to control the remote vpn access(pptpd) throught shorewall. Which is the way to control vpn /ip/access in

please, help, i have build vpn server (suse 9 + poptop), i have managed to implement tc htb in ip-up script, but every client has own ppp interface (ppp0, ppp1, ppp2...), and my idea is to share available bandwidth, not to limit connection, how to build root tc rule, when I have more then one interface?... please any one width experiance regards _______________________________________________
